Just thought I would let you guys know that the question "What street was the original Forest on?" is a little upsetting to those of us who are not familiar with the forests old life.Jen is trying to create an account here and we cant get past this question even I don't know the answer to and I have volunteered at the forest for a while (maybe not recently)

If we are supposed to be an open community why is this needed to register on the bb. I know its to stop bots and the like but come on eh?

The answer is at the beginning of the volunteer guide though! So yeah, there is a way for new volunteers to find out, they get a copy when they fill in an application form. Maybe we should make it easier for people to know where to look? Put a hint under the question itself?

Yes, and on the home page first on the list under 'About Forest' is Volunteering and when you open that, the three ways are listed. So, a hint and a suggestion that it's a good idea to volunteer perhaps?

The answer should be short and unquestionable though, not a block of text!
